Rustline Defense is a fast-paced tower defense survival game set in a rough scrapyard wasteland.

You protect your base against endless enemy waves by placing towers, upgrading your defenses, and making smart choices between rounds. Each run is about surviving just a little longer, building a stronger setup, and finding better combinations.

This prototype is focused on the core gameplay loop:

  • Defend your base from incoming waves
  • Earn Scrap from kills
  • Place and upgrade towers
  • Survive as long as possible
  • Experiment with different defensive builds

Current prototype features

  • Endless wave defense
  • Scrapyard/post-apocalyptic theme
  • Core tower defense gameplay
  • Upgrade-based progression
  • Quick browser-play format
  • Early test version of Rustline Defense

Planned features

  • More tower types
  • Boss waves
  • Permanent upgrades
  • New enemy types
  • Better visuals and effects
  • More maps and progression systems

This is an early prototype, so balance, visuals, and content will improve over time.
